IBM® Rational® Quality
Manager is
available in two editions: Express and Standard. You can upgrade from
the Express edition to the Standard edition.
To upgrade from the Express to the Standard edition, you install
the alternate edition of the product, and then copy the appropriate
configuration files. Because both editions support the same database
configurations, a database migration is not necessary, but can be
performed following the Jazz/Rational Team Concert database conversion
process. After the alternate product edition has been installed, the
configuration files must be upgraded.
Copying configuration files
You should first
rename the original files in the upgraded server installation to make
backups. Then, copy the following files from the source server to
the target server:
- The teamserver.properties file
- The workitemindex directory
- If you are using Derby, copy the repositoryDB directory
tree.
- If you are using Tomcat and have changed the configuration, copy
the tomcat/conf directory.
- If you are using the Tomcat user database, copy tomcat-users.xml file.
- If you are using Tomcat and you have customized the application
deployment descriptor, copy the modified web.xml file for the
jazz.war file which is located in the \JazzTeamServer\server\tomcat\webapps\jazz\WEB-INF directory.
Licensing after upgrading to a new edition
If
you are upgrading to the Standard edition, and you have purchased
the Quality Manager Client Activation Kit for Express, you will need
to purchase and install the Quality Manager Client Activation Kit
for Standard Edition in order to use the client licenses. Your Quality
Manager license assignments will still be in effect, but the Quality
Manager licenses will be deactivated until the correct activation
kit is installed.
